Respuesta :

A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb. It can be an independent clause which in itself has meaning, expresses complete thought, the dependent clause does not express complete thought and can not be a sentence, it can not stand alone. If we apply this to the options offered, we can conclude that sentences with a dependent clause are the second and fifth. In the second sentence, the dependent clause is "and so is my sister", which in itself has no thought without the first part of the sentence. In the fifth sentence, the dependent clause is "so you better hurry if you want to go with us" is also a condition, a clause to take action.

The sentences which contain dependent clauses are;

  • B. Alyssa is graduating next year, and so is my sister
  • E. We're leaving soon, so you'd better hurry if you want to go with us.

A dependent clause is one where there is a subject + verb but it does not have a complete meaning when used in a sentence. For it to be complete, it needs to be joined to an independent clause with the use of coordinating conjunctions.

As a result of this, we can see that the correct answers which has dependent clauses are B and E because they need coordinating conjunctions to express a complete thought.

Therefore, the correct answer is option B and E
